My primary physician here is actually Nurse Practitioner Kristin Bleninger-Sundar. She's a wonderful caring woman who has been a blessing to me. She understands what chronic pain is (and what it's like to have to deal with it every day) better than others. She's knowledgeable about the many different options and procedures that can be tried to get you even more pain relief than you can ever hope for. Dr. Janiga is a ray of sunshine for the doctors here. He is kind, caring, and has an awesome bedside manner and really knows what he's doing but takes time to talk to you about what he's doing and make sure that you are both on the same page. Now, a doctor I leave nameless here, only as a courtesy, if you choose to go here you may or may not get along with but most patients (and staff) I talk to feel the same distain I have for him. He is rude, short (tempered), snotty, and deserves to be put in his place really, but will never change even if that were to occur. I'm sure you know the type. He has the bedside manner of a dead fish and the personality of a cold washcloth. If you have seen him then you know who I am talking about! If you have seen him and found yourself hating him, please give the other people here a chance to help you. Everyone else here is wonderful! Just come and give the chance to Kristin or Dr. Janiga and the rest of the staff and as long as you don't see the other doctor at all the rest of your care here should be pleasant

Would give zero stars if it was possible. Went to TCPC after living with 10 years of severe Lumbar…read moreradiculopathy affecting my left leg. Met with a NP, who told me that she would never prescribe anything for the pain and that the intrathecal pain pump was my only option. I had previously tried the spinal cord stimulator with failing results. After the "trial" I ended up with a spinal fluid leak, leading to excruciating headaches. After days of calling, they finally scheduled a procedure to fix the leak. I should have seen the signs then, but was so hopeful to have relief. Had the pain pump installed and thought everything was fine and I would finally live with less pain. Little did I know, the pump would be empty before the date they told me to come back on and I was forced to endure morphine withdrawals on my own. Phone calls went unanswered and portal messages ignored. When my NP finally responded to me via the portal, she blamed the emptying on me. Fast forward to round 2, I asked for a medication change due to the side effects I was experiencing, was given the change but again was forced to withdrawal because they will not return phone calls asking for a fill. I am so done, I will have the pump removed and learn to live in pain. Do your homework!!!

Each process with this TCPC location is extremely complex for no reason. The communication from…read morefront desk to provider, as well as, from provider to insurance and clients is subpar at best. The front desk personnel, Sylvia, gives off a passive-aggressive, patronizing attitude while dealing with clients, even new ones like those who were treated rudely by her while she was on the phone and for 8 min and made sure you knew you weren't to interfere. I made a call beforehand, stating I would be running behind and the person on the phone said, "head in," even after I told her my ETA. She said she would speak to my provider. Upon arriving, I was met with Sylvia's "pleasant" attitude, and accidentally responded when she said, "Hi." Little did I know, she had just ended one call and began another. The 8-9 min spent on the phone without letting my provider know I had arrived, is most likely the reason she said that she wouldn't meet with me. I had explained the previous conversation on the phone and I believe she thought I was trying to undermine her, when in reality, I just wanted to explain why I traveled 20+ min and arrived late with assurance of seeing the provider. It's sad that in 2026, when a Muslim woman is by herself, certain people feel the need to assert dominance when nobody else is around. Then, when the other "new" clients came in behind me, the way she treated them was rude as well, as if she didn't feel either one of us fit in to be there.

I've been going to TCPC for 10 years. I was on pain medication when I started going here, so they…read morekept me on the dose I was on (high dose). I have multiple reasons for being in pain. Fast forward to about 2 years ago. I was forced to cut back on my pain meds. However the cut back ultimately was a good thing and I could live a life I could handle. Last year at this time I was told I had to cut back even more and I was not happy about this. My provider at the time ( Bethany who is no longer there) went to bat for me with no luck, they decreased my meds. She said it would be a long process of further decreasing my meds, but she was wrong. 9 months later and they cut back my meds again. I am now on their acceptable dose and they keep asking me if I want a spinal pain pump. I do not!!!!!! I'm old school, do the least invasive thing until it no longer works, then do the next least invasive , and so On. Spinal pain pump is the last resort for me. I'm in my early 50's, I hopefully have many more years to live, I don't want the big guns for pain now. No way, I'm saving that for when I need it later in down the road. However, what do I do now if my pain gets worse? I have variable pain, and sometimes I need more meds, but I can't have them. It's frustrating to say the least. They told me the won't even start new patients on painkillers!!!!!! In a rare circumstance, the might, but the pt is only allowed to stay on for 1 year. Really? It's no acceptable at all. Chronic pain is real, most patients with chronic pain follow the rules religiously. It's just sad that it has come to this. Pain meds are right there, but we can't access them, and we need them to live quality of life.

After not hearing anything, I contacted them and they said they wanted access to my file directly. I contacted my clinic and was given a code they could enter to view my file. I notified them of this with the code and have not heard a word back from them since. What a joke and to think I wasted all this time on their behalf. Won't even comment on my impression of clients in waiting room. Do not waste your time.

I have been a patient at the Maple Grove iSpine Clinic for a good number of years. I have read all…read morethe negative comments on this page, and am also aware of the other side of the story. Remember what a mess drug prescriptions were? Everybody's dog was scripting drugs, even simply at the patient's request. Well, medicine has become more specialized and pain is no exception. This is a good thing. Congress has made drug regulations very detailed, and insurance companies have created an obsticle course, so much so that Family Doctors have a tough time dealing with all of it. These new pain clinics are designed to deal with all the regs on drugs insurance companies AND protect both the doctors legally and the patients medically. Skilled and talented nurses have rigid rules that keep everything in accordance and running smoothly. Special procedures are in place for everyone's protection, and they are important. Excuse me if this is repetitive. I want you to understand. In my opinion, nurses handle most all patient contact, evaluation, analysis, prescribing, everything, often in consultation with the doctor. Doctors will avoid any comments, referring you to your family practitioner for questions or evaluation. They are totally protecting themselves with the nurses as buffers. You can not call to speak to a nurse or doctor for anything other than scheduling. They even have assistants witnessing and recording their interaction with the patient, now. This is all a good thing. Insurance companies and laws, litigation and misdiagnosing, etc., etc. have to be dealt with, firmly and strictly in order to serve patients efficiently, safely, legally all in the patient's best interest. The pain clinic program has been, for these and other reasons, a huge success in helping deal with the 'War on Drugs." Yes, I have felt some 'rudeness' at times, seen the hard and fast rules, but nobody tells you why. Dr. William Fox, MD. (retired) explained to me over the years of his involvement in this program and the forces doctors have to deal with. He gave me an insight not generally available. I've had a chance to see both sides of the picture and it's not perfect. Humans are prone to failure. That's how we learn. We are still learning about pain, still trying new things. I have had great success along with some 'kinda' successes, but on the whole, I'm happy as a bear in honey with iSpine. They have my pain under control and I have a ton and a half of pain. I'm a regular Evel Kinevil with this, that and everything broken and the rest just one big pain. The few "Pains" I may get from iSpine are in my best interest and I don't need a special procedure for them. These guys do a fantastic job and they get my many thanks for trying to simplify what seemed to be at one time, an insurmountable job. You give 'em a break, too! Bob K. Oak Grove, MN
